Full description

An "Engine House" is depicted the OS 1864 County Series 1:2500, contained on a Torbay HBSMR GIS layer, within land parcel 1458 immediately south of a limekiln MTO21537 (formerly SX85NE/52/2); and also on the OS 1890 1:10,000.[1]. It is unrecorded on the 1904 OS.

It appears to have been destroyed by modern quarry workings by 1983.[2]
